Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ onion , sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic , crushed
  • 500 g rump steak , sliced
  • 200 g mushrooms , sliced
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • ½ cup beef stock/bone broth
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • ¾ cup sour cream

Method
 

  1. Heat oil in a fry pan over medium heat. Sauté onion and garlic for 2–3 minutes until soft.
  2. Add sliced steak and cook until browned.
    3. Avoid overcrowding the pan.
  3. Stir in mushrooms and cook until tender.
  4. Sprinkle paprika and stir. Add tomato paste and combine.
  5. Add beef stock, sour cream (or coconut cream), and Dijon mustard. Simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  6. Serve stroganoff over cooked rice and garnish with parsley if desired.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, swap sour cream for coconut cream — keeps the sauce rich and creamy.
  • Make-ahead friendly: freeze the sauce before adding rice. Reheat gently.
  • Variation: use chicken breast instead of beef for a lighter meal.
  • Nightshade note: paprika and tomato paste are nightshades. See adaptation swaps if avoiding them.
  • Low FODMAP tip: use tinned champignon mushrooms and spring onion tops instead of onion for low FODMAP options.
